MEMORIAL DAY

It’s time for Memorial Day planning again. We have used all of the donated military funeral flags given to us in the past four or five years. We welcome your gifts of casket flags from any and all United States military actions. Please put a note with veteran’s name, service branch, and years served with the flag. You can call me at 330-657-2064 and we can arrange a pickup or drop off the flag.

If you are planning to be in the “Memorial Day Parades” or having a group march, you MUST call me and confirm your participation. 330-657-2064.

I also need the names of any of our residents past or present, Woodridge alumni included. Please call with your name, rank, branch of service, and where they are serving. 330-657-2064.

Join Valley Fire Department for coffee and doughnuts at the township’s service garage (corner of 303 and Riverview) before the parade. The parade steps off at 11:00 AM and heads toward Cedar Grove Cemetery for a brief service. Following this service head to Boston and the Cornerstone Church located at the corner of Boston Mills and Hines Hill. After a short break with refreshments provided by the church everyone heads to Boston Cemetery for a second service.
